Bacon Jalapeno Fry Sauce
Description
The recipe begins by cooking bacon until crisp, then finely chopping it to distribute smoky flavor evenly through the sauce. Fresh jalapeños provide a fresh heat element, with the option to adjust quantity for desired spiciness. Mixing mayonnaise and ketchup creates a creamy, sweet-tart base that contrasts nicely with the salty bacon and sharp peppers.
This sauce is served immediately for best flavor and texture but can be refrigerated in an airtight container for later use. It adds a savory, spicy accent to fried foods or grilled sandwiches, enhancing both taste and mouthfeel.
Adjusting the number of jalapeños or including seeds can intensify the heat according to preference. The bacon adds a crunchy texture and smoky depth uncommon in typical fry sauces.
Ingredients
- 2 trips Bacon
- 1-2 jalapeño peppers seeded and minced, fresh
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup ketchup
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any grease. Once cool enough to handle, finely chop the bacon. You should have about 2 tablespoons.
- Mix the bacon, jalapeno, mayo, and ketchup in a medium bowl until combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately as a dip for fries or onion rings or as a spread for sandwiches and burgers. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- For a spicier sauce, add a second jalapeño or leave the seeds in for extra heat.
- Store leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
